Overview
- Pribula hurt his left ankle on a fourth-and-goal rush at Vanderbilt, was fitted with an air cast, carted off and later seen in a boot and on crutches.
- Coach Eli Drinkwitz said there were no broken bones and the ankle had to be popped back in, offering no timetable and cautioning it could be a while.
- Further testing reported Sunday indicated a bad sprain with ligament damage that does not require surgery, with an outside chance of a return this season per CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz.
- Zollers, a true freshman, went 14 of 23 for 138 yards and a touchdown, leading a tying drive before Missouri fell 17-10 after a final play was ruled short of the goal line.
- Missouri’s quarterback depth is thin after Sam Horn’s season‑ending fractured tibia, and the 6-2 Tigers now face a demanding stretch that includes hosting No. 3 Texas A&M and a trip to Oklahoma.
